I have seen this one . . .
. . . but can't remember much about it, other than Hoskins playing a gangster up against the IRA (?). I think this film was his introduction to American audiences, because I do remember seeing him interviewed on morning television by Gene Shalit, then a film commentator on the NBC network. Late '70s, correct?

Let's share our most memorable film scenes this week . . .
. . . along with what we're currently wearing. These would be the scenes that left us riveted to our seats, folks. There are hundreds of scenes that come to mind, but the one that left me glued to my chair, hands gripping the armrests, and suspended disbe...
Epic beginning of thread dear Art
Indeed Deer Hunter Russian Roullet Scene was amazingly scary, realistic and somehow perversly exciting Most cordially Damjan
A faded zoner for me, I saw a film many years
back featuring a very cool looking pilot wearing one, can't recall the name of the film though. HAGWE Mech. ...
Ah, but the film scenes we're sharing . . .
. . . aren't connected with our watches, Mech, at least, not necessarily. Was there a scene in any film that you can't forget?
In Thomas Magnum's honor...
A GMT... And a matte one, to match with him. Unless I take this one... I have the whole night to make my choice. ;) HAGWE. Nicolas ...
I can already announce you I prepared a series of 3 posts.
And 3 long posts... I will put the first of these 3 on line soon, in December. Ciao. Nicolas.
Can´t wait to see that! I already got my pills, and prepared my armchair!!
Have a nice week end mi amigo! Abrazos desde las Pampas, Abel.
This pair is stunning ...
... and seems in a very nice shape too. Happy you Nicolas! Cheers, Mark
The first one has a classic matte dial, when the second comes with a twist.
" Mini dial " with the dots centered. Both with a nice patina. Both being fine examples of what an affordable vintage Rolex can be... Best, Nicolas
mamamia....wonderfully delicious GMTs
no movie shot from me...but I've still got my GMT on for the whole week
One bit of movie trivia that might interest you and Damjan . . .
. . . is the production history of Selleck's well-regarded Quigley Down Under , which was originally offered to both Steve McQueen and Clint Eastwood. Selleck gained from their rejections.

Luke....I am your Father...join me...together, we can defeat the Brands, and we can share this box of watches.... Damn you Darth Dad, all I want is this Vianney Halter... best, Horo ...
I am sure he has many more boxes to share. In the contrary case, it would be
Deceiving... ;) Best, Nicolas
Great gathering Horo
I didn't know you had a DBS! Do you still have it or is it an old picture? Congratulations for this collection Horo. May the Constant Force be with you, Mark
still with me...picture taken 2 days ago :)
you should be able to tell that...look at the Zenith Type 20 Zegg and Cerlati edition right in the middle :)- best, Horo
I was trying to look everywhere at once,
... and I was so impressed that I missed this 5 pieces LE : congratulations Horo, another Ufo in your wallet. Cheers, Mark

Luke, I am your father....how dare you wear my MB&F without asking me... watch pic just purely for horological content. if you are looking at it, instead of above, go for a immediate checkup. best, Horo ...

It's the . . .
. . . soundtrack, right? :-) Here's another variation . . . . . . on the same theme ;-) . . .
Maybe ...
... but i really like the movie a lot ... i've always likedd those B-ish movies ... High Risk has a 5,6/10 rating on imdb ... But those actors !! James Brolin Anthony Quinn Lindsay Wagner James Coburn Ernest Borgnine Just too cool to be cool ! :-)
all time favorite classic

Michael Corleone wearing when his daughter was shot on the stairs coming out of the theatre at the end of "God Father III"? My guess was VC! But I honestly don't know! Cheers, Francois

what if James Bond had worn another watch? Would the Fifty Fathom be what the Sub is today? Would the Sub be what the Sub is today?... HAGWE Matt ...
What if.....
... one of lives biggest questions anyway... :-) But nice "underdog" Best Hans
He only wore the watch because...
...the producer saw that he didn't have one and loaned him his. Amazing that if Cubby Broccoli had been wearing another watch, the Sub may never have risen to the level of collectibility it has today...
Dirty connection
Big Gun - Dirty Harry = Big watch - dirty picture HAGWE Damjan P.S. Starting point 1:47 ;) & ...
Clint I know but ...
Educate me. What is this watch? Note: Answer fast or Noel will be traveling to Croatia. He he. Cheers, Nilo
Clint has . . .
. . . Steve . . . . . . to thank for turning down Dirty Harry . He had just done Bullitt, and reportedly didn't want to be typecast as a cop. Good call, Damjan! ...
Amazingly how many
great actors careers developed because some star turned down role anyhow thank you Steve not only for Clint ;) Sincerely Dear Art Damjan
Soooo many to choose from.... but since it is a FRIDAY
might as well be a Long Good Friday And what might H have been wearing on his wrist? HAGWE ,r:9,s:0,i:111 This message has been edited by Baron on 2012-11-30 00:55:25 This message has been edited by Baron on 2012-11-30 00:58:05 This message has been edi...
Unexpected but marvelous choice
Bob Hoskins and his facial expressions are memorable combined with music theme and young Bond Brosnan = classic Best Damjan

Cool theme. Let me play ...
First, I little of B&W: Oh yes, the "Survivor" is here. Then one movie scene: Blade Runner: A wonderful weekend to all, Nilo ...
Confession time: I've never seen . . .
. . . Blade Runner. Unbelievable for a Rutger Hauer fan, but true.
If you never experienced the movie ...
Read the book. Philip K. Dick's "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?", is great and includes scenes that didn't went to the movie. On other hand, this movie is a must see. No one should go to Shanghai without seeing this movie. I do remember a sunset in ...

Ubik, the book ...
Not "our" Ubik, is more crazy. I have on my long queue the "The Man in the High Castle". I love alternate history. Cheers, Nilo

I have about 70 books waiting to read and 200 keepers. Others i give away to the family so they recycle. My family are good at buying books from flea markets, car boot sales and charity shops, rarely paying more than £1 a book which is why kindle holds no...
not necessarily my absolute favorite moment, but

Never saw . . .
. . . The Rocky Horror Picture Show , but did see Tim Curry once walking near the section of Sunset Boulevard known as "Dead Man's Curve". Curiously, there is no sidewalk on that section of Sunset, so he was literally walking on the asphalt. (The neighbor...
Beautiful watch ... here is the bombing sequence
G, Allow me to trespass. Love the sequence. Cheers, Nilo
I saw that film in a theater . . .
. . . in either '67 or '68, and vividly recall the bombing scenes, which must have represented the height of animation technology at the time it was made (1956?). The real film of flying Lancasters interspersed with studio scenes of the interior of the pl...
It was a great film...
It was a great film in its day, but if we are being technical i am wearing a Laco which was worn by the other side who arent really featured in the film. Call it artistic licence. G On Dec 1, 2012 8:49 PM, "www watchprosite" *Alert from:* www:watchprosite...
Omega Seamaster - "The Day of the Jackal"
Hi Art, it is not any particular scene which I like best, but the whole movie is simply gorgeous. The plot taking place in the 1960´s makes all main characters wear watches like this Omega Seamaster which is on my wrist today. A splendid era this must hav...
That is a great movie and ...
You have a great watch (I'm not sure that is from 1973). Congratulations, Nilo
A great film that I saw during its initial release . . .
. . . in a packed theater, anaesdoc. It left a great impression at the time, most particularly a scene with a gun maker (played by Cyril Cusack) in which Edward Fox gives the specifications of the rifle he wants made to assassinate De Gaulle. I couldn't f...
Dear Jeff I see common motif
